Testing Sam Fender's Music Knowledge | Track Star*

Sam Fender has quickly become one of the defining voices of modern British rock, earning BRIT Awards and critical acclaim for his anthemic lyricism, powerful vocals, and sharp storytelling about working-class life.

This week on Track Star, he showcases the musical influences who helped shape his sound through tracks by Steely Dan, Olivia Dean, Kings of Leon, and Tom Petty. We also dive into some life changing shows and collaborations that prove Sam’s innate love for songwriting and performing live.

His wide-ranging taste makes for an incredible conversation, and Jack grows inevitably jealous of his bond with Lewis Capaldi and Grian Chatten. Between the banter, the stories, and the laughs, you’re in for a treat with this one!
